I can’t believe it’s over. Charlie’s 1st Birthday Party has come and gone. Tear, tear.
We had a fabulous time celebrating with friends, little friends and family. The weather was perfect, even a little warm, and the Dessert & Candy Bars were a hit. Oh, and whoever invented bubble guns is a genius.

Great weather. Great seats. Great atmosphere to remember 9/11. Great date sans the babe. Great fun. Horrible football played by BYU.

This past weekend Dan and his 3 [...]

The scenery was beautiful.

As you can tell, Little Man LOVED the [...]
